A composition tube is made by winding a filament on a rotating mandrel (300) with radial projections (310) to form holes at the required locations in the tube. The mandrel has a rigid core (320) mounted on a shaft (40) parallel to its axis, and a deformable outer shell (330) equipped with the projections. A composition tube is made by winding a filament on a rotating mandrel (300) with radial projections (310) to form holes at the required locations in the tube. The mandrel has a rigid core (320) mounted on a shaft (40) parallel to its axis, and a deformable outer shell (330) of an elastomer material equipped with the projections. Between the core and the shell it has a lubricator (350) that keeps the two rotating together but allows them to be separated in an axial direction. Independent claims are also included for the following: (a) a method of manufacturing the tube comprising by fitting the shell to the mandrel, winding the filament onto it, impregnating the filament with resin and hardening the tube; and (b) a support element for a filter cartridge using the tube.
